I'm sure it's been done before, and moderator can delete if its has, but how would you set up a bag for a $1000, that u would play tomorrow?....assuming most gear would be used, try to be realistic with prices....just curious as to see what would be most people's "must-haves" and what they could use to get by....BST, eBay, Craigslist etc as a reference for prices

It's been done plenty and $1000 would be way too easy. Do a search and check out the under $300, $400, $500 ones. You don't have to spend that much to get the ball in the hole with very good used equipment.

I do apologize, should have looked around more, thought I remembered doing one, but this Zak's article sparked interest....

The trick is to be able to purchase used equipment that has the same specs you'd need. Anyone can find hundreds of excellent (dare I say mint) condition pre-owned gear at a mere $0.10 on the dollar but in "standard" length and lie angle. So if you're not a standard fit, you'd really have to be realistic and have to consider about half the cost (about $500 or so) going to reshafting and refitting most sets including drivers, fairway metals, hybrids, wedges, etc. Now you're standard length and lie and use a stiff flex, you could get nice stuff for dirt cheap and then afford a Bennington bag and Bettinardi prototype tour issue putter.

No need to apologize, just stating that $1000 is really a high number and it doesn't take that much cash to put together a really good quality bag of sticks. It all depends on what you are really wanting- condition/specs/shafts and of course patience.
My bag.
Nike vr tour- 9.5 rip alpha 60- $80
Adams super hybrid 15-new golfetail auction- $64
Titleist 909h- 19 project x 6.0 -$109 (bought this one new 4 years ago)
Mizuno jpx 800- project x 6.0- $300- eBay
Callaway jaws 52/56 bought pair new $100 eBay
Taylormade spider vicino- traded my buddy for a cleveland classic brz 2 I got used off eBay for $34.
Taylormade tmx stand bag- $120 eBay
It's what I like and want for $807 accumulated over the years.

That's 1042 USD total but I'd take that any day. I already have the i15s, I've only heard good things about the 650 woods. You can't go wrong with the 52s and the N.S. shafts are great. I have MP T-10 and 11 wedges, would love to have the Bettinardi and love my Ogio bag.
